Sean Tucker: Buccaneers

[GoSU96]

Beautiful run.

 

[OrangeXtreme]

Awesome, very happy for him, is that his first?

First this year.

 

[GoSU96]

If he had cut that inside

Tampa is the best watch in the league right now.

They really are.

Baker was Houdini on that 3rd and 14 run. Really impressive

Bucs are feeding Tucker on this drive and he's delivering.

Bucs are feeding Tucker on this drive and he's delivering.

And then they stopped feeding him and went nowhere and then missed the FG. Should have kept going with Tucker.

 

[sufandu]

He looked plenty fast on that TD, jogging it in after that inital burst outside.

Sean Tucker rushed six times for 25 yards and a touchdown in Tampa Bay’s Week 6 win over the 49ers.

Tucker is a better runner that Rachaad White. I assume pass protection is the reason he hasn’t passed him on the depth chart.

You have to be happy for Sean Tucker and also Riley Dixon, who BTW, is in his 10th NFL season already. Tampa Bay is a fun team so far.

Dixon has earned close to $16 mill in his NFL career:

As to Tucker, he made himself some money yesterday. He demonstrated he can be, at least, a viable back-up in this league. Even if his role diminishes when Bucky Irving gets back, he's gonna be in demand. I think that White may be the guy to go after the season with Tucker settling in as the backup.

Sean had a solid game, but really, if u watch a lot of Tampa, no way is he better than White (or Irving). IMHO, Sean could be a solid RB2 on a different team.

I've watched probably 10-12 Bucs games the past two seasons. Irving is great. White is ok and was passed by Irving for a reason. He averages 3.8 ypc for his career. He's in there primarily for receiving and pass blocking.

This season White is averaging 4.0 Yards per carry and 5.7 Yards Per Catch vs 3.0 and -1.3 for Sean.

Tucker has touched the ball 12 times in 6 games. Some sample size there.

Not being a SU homer but Tuck can start in this league easily. If Tuck gets most carries he would have 100+ yds easy. He gets better the more he plays also.

He led them in per carry average last year. I think sometimes people think he's not as good because he's not flashy, but he's got balance, power, and speed.

Reminds us old guys of Joe Morris being stuck behind Butch Woolfolk with the Giants a few years ago.

It took making him the starter to get to and win the super bowl.

I am O.K. with Tampa ripping off my Giants formula for Super Bowl success so long as Tucker gets the rock.
